Hello Mary Kate goodbye Donegal!
Meath…1-07 Donegal…0-05 Summerhill players are a unique breed. Mattie Kerrigan was regarded as one of if not the finest player of his generation.

Glory Days Are Here Again
Meath…1-11 Dublin…0-12 If you dream it, you can do it. Though I doubt even the most fanatical Meath person, cough, could’ve predicted this. It’s not all that long ago the Meath Ladies team registered only three points in a game and were somewhere below rock bottom. Today, the revolution was completed. They brought the Brendan […]
